I was not initially planning on devoting three separate posts to the topic of goats, but, alas, here we are. I’ve mentioned before that I don’t always anticipate just how many posts one topic will require, and now and then I am pleasantly surprised to learn that there is far more content pertaining to certain … More Let’s talk about goats (part three)
In the instance you missed yesterday’s post, allow me to give you a heads-up of sorts regarding today’s post and its subject matter – goats. I’ve been enjoying writing about all different types of animals here on my blog, and goats, by no means, are an exception to this pleasure. Hence, the topic today is … More Let’s talk about goats (part two)
Now that I’ve established the definite theme of dedicating posts to specific kinds of animals, I figure I may as well lean into it and keep it going, even if this theme was not intentional at its start. I love animals, as do many people, so I figure the subject matter is at least somewhat … More Let’s talk about goats
In yesterday’s post, I mentioned how whenever I conjure thoughts of donkeys, I simultaneously conjure thoughts of my dad, as he has never hidden his love for these creatures. I figured I should also make mention of Donkey from Shrek – I don’t really see how anyone can honestly not visualize him and hear Eddie … More Let’s take a moment to appreciate donkeys (part two)
While I wasn’t exactly intending on creating an animal series here on my blog, I can’t really argue against the fact that animal series, as of late, have absolutely become a central theme. I’m not mad about it, and I hope you aren’t, either; I figure there are so many animals that we share our … More Let’s take a moment to appreciate donkeys
There is a potential probability that you read the title of today’s post and asked yourself, “Are we seriously still talking about sheep?” If so, I can’t really say I blame you, but I will say that I figure sheep are absolutely worth devoting three posts to, and if you find yourself disagreeing, kindly see … More Let’s talk about sheep (part three)
In reflection, perhaps it would have been a bit more fitting had I dedicated a few posts to the topic of sheep when we were in the midst of the Easter season. If I possessed the ability to go back in time, I would take the Easter approach, but seeing as my name is not … More Let’s talk about sheep (part two)
Sheep are, and arguably will remain to be, one of the sweetest and most docile creatures in existence, in my own humble opinion. Sure, there are probably a few bad apples or rogue ones in the mix, but in a general sense, sheep are gentle animals, and I’ve always found them to be rather comforting. … More Let’s talk about sheep
Today’s post will continue our discussion of cows and offer up some interesting information about them. Prior to meeting my husband, I didn’t have a whole lot of exposure to cattle; seeing as he runs his family’s beef operation, I quickly found myself helping him with chores when we started dating, and I’ve loved these … More Let’s hear it for cows (part two)
When I sat down to write today’s post, wracking my brains in an attempt to come up with a topic, it dawned on me that it’s only fair at this point to dedicate a post to cows. I wrote a few posts all about chickens, the animals I interact with the most on our family … More Let’s hear it for cows
As stated at the conclusion of yesterday’s post, today’s will further our discussion of horses. I figure the timing of selecting horses as a blog post topic is rather fitting with the recent occurrence of the Kentucky Derby, and I also figure that because they’re such incredible beasts, they deserve some recognition. When my sister … More How much do you know about horses? (part two)
Upon the completion of my three-part chicken series, as absurd as that sounds, I found myself considering what other sorts of critters I could dedicate a post to. I’ve covered a number of creatures at this point, but I was a little disappointed with myself when I realized I hadn’t yet offered up the tremendous … More How much do you know about horses? (part one)
One might suspect that, by now, I would be a bit more attuned to the likelihood of an intended two-part post becoming three, but alas, here we are, yet again. I think that perhaps I initially figure that a topic won’t exceed two posts, until I actually begin writing, and then realize I have more … More How much do you know about chickens? (part three)
I said as much in yesterday’s post, but in case you missed it, or haven’t yet read it, allow me to reiterate the driving force behind the inspiration of the topic of chickens. I work with chickens, and have for a long time; I find them to be very misunderstood creatures, with many people assuming … More How much do you know about chickens? (part two)
Anyone who knows me personally is aware of my affiliation with chickens, but for those of you who don’t, allow me to provide you with some context. My family’s farm is diverse, and one aspect of the farm that I am the most involved with compared to the other crops we produce is our commercial … More How much do you know about chickens? (part one)
When Blaine initially suggested writing about pigs, as I mentioned in yesterday’s post, I was not anticipating having to allot two posts to the subject matter. But, as it turns out, there is more to know about pigs that one may suspect, hence why we are here, on day two of our conversation pertaining to … More How much do you know about pigs? (part two)
I have to share a personal little tale with all of you before we delve into the subject matter of all things pigs. I had just started on a draft of this post and left my laptop open with my blog page on the screen. All I had written was the title, which reads “How … More How much do you know about pigs?
